I have an honours degree in Sociology and Economics from UCD, and I'm thinking about going and applying for the PGDE in trinity.

Firstly, how hard would it be trying to get a job teaching economics and would I be waiting around for ages for a job in your humble opinions?

Secondly, how difficult is it to get into the PGDE in trinity does anyone know? Is the application process tough?

All comments welcomes, cheers!

I can't see many schools being in a position to offer a full-time job in Economics as in the whole country only about 5000 candidates take it for exam.
